Who is actually stupid enough to buy a Rolex above retail? Machine made mass produced watches which are nice in some cases and of ok quality but above retail 😂😂😂

Tax should be taken into account as that would change the dynamic in many countries, especially the UK

Thanks Vinny. you said it,, nothing is going to happen for some time! which means business as usual for you and the other grey market dealers and no submariner for me and many others from the AD. I for one lost interest early this year after waiting over 2 years with nothing to show for it and will invest the money (including the over 2 years interest) into something else.

Rolex needs to have there own stores. And do away with dealers selling to the grey market. I have never bought a Rolex as an investment. And neither should anyone else.

i don't give a shit about Rolex, I've got a Seiko turtle.

The muppet boiler room watch market is dead

Hey Vinny , very good video . I can do better editing in your videos which can help you to get more engagement in your videos . Pls lmk what do you think ?

Watchfinder is claiming 2615 Rolex watches available today

Really Vinny, you just said you can walk in to a Rolex AD and pick up solid gold and bi metal watches straight away, so why would you build a billion dollar factory to make more gold watches no ones queueing up for? Rolex has done just fine for the last 100 years where you could buy any Rolex walking off the street, and I remember not so long ago when many AD's offered 0% interest over 3 years to buy them. The Rolex brand has always been seen as luxury when anyone could buy them, and pick them up with no issues. I guarantee if Rolex could sell 3 million watches a year they'd do it in a heartbeat.

🤮

Without trying to be mean, the average Rolex buyer is your “recruiter of the month”. That’s the consumer they are targeting

Nothing is going to change unless Rolex clamps down on the scum ADs.

Just start selling fakes mate you'll be right.

people only want it cuz they cant have it. once ts everywhere, noone will want it.

Rolex watch ⌚ agent dealers are still pricks 🌭 and acting 🎭 like 👍 clowns 🤡 and refuses to sell to anyone but resellers ! So no difference there ! So I am supporting Omega watch ⌚! Sigh 😮‍💨

I already got my Rolex. So Fk Rolex as a crime syndicate charitable trust now as it is. 😂 All I care about is my service every 5-10 years, I just walk down to RSC around the corner. Thanks!

They are 10-15 thousand euros watches, they are not easy get, You damn assse

I swear the happiness I feel when #mamacoo uploads a video is beyond!!!!

Not sure how the 30% figure of demand was calculated but if it is from rolex stores judging it based on wait lists then they'll be in for a shock. Most people on the wait list are looking to flip the watch as soon as they get it, if demand grows so large that profit margins decrease then we will see demand go down as well. Many people also want one simply because they can't get one, who's to say they'll still be interested when the wait goes down from 1 years to a few weeks or months? This isn't even factoring in the economic beating we've been getting since 2022 with no signs of recovery. Rolex has to play this perfectly or they could see themselves stuck holding the bag of watches with no buyers in sight.

grandpa rolexssi style

There needs to be enough production to meet most demand while still be able to charge list price. If you want a Black Sub a Yacht Master or and explorer there should be enough production to get those at list with no wait. Now if you want a Panda or Pepsi maybe its in Rolexes best interest to keep them somewhat rare to maintain hype.

I love Vinny's snapshot of the Rolex factory at 1:46. Couldn't help but notice that the technician has blood sample vials, which is symbolic of Rolex taking every last drop/dollar/pound of our wallets, both new and pre-owned!

Rolex got cocky and now they are going to pay the price especially when the global economy tanks in the greatest global depression we have seen in our lifetimes

When it comes to fine imitation watches, mamacoo delivers. I've bought from them several times, and I've never been let down.

Vinny, I can see the future. You will get tired, greedy and most definately fat and will have the associated health issues. Rolex AD's will still be there come what may and the grey dealers will do and say anything to avoid going back to double glazing where they belong. I'd love my watches to become worthless (since I buy to keep) as two things would happen, grey dealers would suffer for their lies and deceit often peddling stolen goods and watch crime would end.

video and content sucks

It’s the grey market buying them just wait till the crash lol

I’ve never brought a Rolex to make money in the past the retail prices are fair and I enjoyed the watches

Rolex could take control of the gray market by raising prices on its new/unworn stock, and at the same time, pricing CPO pieces below RRP. Now, Rolex lets the AD's pay to bring the pre-owned pieces to the CPO standard AND then Rolex "certifies" the watch in Switzerland, which adds a hefty cost to the watch. If the Rolex cost to certify is removed, the CPO watches could sell below today's RRP. The gray market would then flow through the AD's.

we're in the end game now

Rolex want the gray market desperately. Otherwise that would not exist. Because guys like me would get a watch at the AD. The gray market raises the value of the brand.

I have seen and had the opportunity of buying explorer 36’mm and 40mm. Explorer 2. Black and polar. . Sea dweller red text . And james Cameroon . Two tone yacht-master Brown dial . All these on display in a small boutique and I could buy one of all id I wanted . no games played . I bought the polar explorer Ans I know I’ll lose money when I sell . it’s fine . I’ve eldest wanted that new ref of this watch :) Times are changing and days are not far. it’ll happen everywhere

The watch market is dead ☠️

Mixed emotions. If Rolex tries to move away from their go to steel sports models it will be a spectacular failure. But agree that they love the free publicity about the fake demand (the demand is only at retail, new - most will either refuse to buy from a grey out of principle or fear of getting a fake). Otherwise they’d raise their popular steel prices 25% and crush much of the grey market.

Rolex is for SUCKERS. millions of watches in circulation not even close to rare

R's acquisition of Bucherer foretold this.

dj41 ss fluted jubilee gree,blue, Wimbledon going 12k plus on gray market bloody joke for a fairly basic entry level model

The watch market is dead. Gray dealers in Miami are starving. And trying to bargain in the Big money like CRM and a lot of my friends are trading the watches they speculated on for Gold bullion were the market might just in the future. The ultra rare grail watches will still hold strong but your average SUB, GMT watches are abundant. It’s only gonna take one major player guy to liquidate his stash to see them drop even harder.

I think the majority of regular customers have lost interest in Rolexes as they’re fed up with the Lies from their AD’s .

The Watch market is dead

But gone will be the days of raking in money at the expense of customers. GM will have to work to make a living and customers will once again be king.

This is all hype. They are just overpriced watches please stop it

Rolex is a nice watch. It isn't the best. But it certainly attracts it's share of douchebag owners.

I'm after a Polar Explorer 2 and I've been promised same by my Rolex AD sometime this year. I have noticed however that this model is available brand new on the grey around retail and one to two years old for below from reputable sellers. I will stick with my AD who's looked after me but there's no doubt in my mind very few models are a solid flip now, meaning most are available without crazy premiums, or maybe none. That has to be good for those who want a watch to keep. This was pre Covid normality and we are now close.

Behind the scenes Rolex AD has many solid gold Rolex watches that they can't sell. To be honest, who is just going to walk in an AD and spend 40k of a solid gold Rolex. Even if you can, most people will make purchase on credit. And now with interest rates around 5 to 7% , it's going to be difficult. Rolex AD has solid gold models in the windows now and no signs for display only. That says alot for Rolex AD now.

Let's hope the additional capacity kills the grey market and resets everyone's expectation that they will make a profit flipping. It will mean the people that want the watch and wear it and keep it will be able to.

The problem for the Rolex market is that the artificial supply demand dynamic of Covid is ending. There was always a ton of supply but now the demand is going down….all while even more supply is being created.

You are 💯 rolofht on this and i have i believe Rolex would seriously hurt their brand over producing watches just to make all the complainers happy with availability. Opening factories in a economic slump is bad business decision making. There must be allure and exclusivity to maintain a luxury status, period.

Not sure why it’s called the grey market, it’s just a second hand market, that has existed for decades. It will be good to get away from the flipping culture, but second hand Rolex will still be for sale. We might see less opportunitists, but legitimate jewellers will still be selling. We all hope the market cools a little, after the crazy bubble we had. Are we not just returning to what was normal before?
